Hi Peter: I looked on this site to see if there was an obit in the Lethbridge paper for him but didn't find one in this Index: http://www.ourheritage.net/index_page_stuff/Local_History_Links/Obits_to_1959/Obits_to_1959_index.html However, it says on the main page: Please Note: We are now able to find the obituary for anyone buried in Lethbridge for ANY YEAR. If it is not a name or year we have listed, send us the name and approximate time of burial. Grave site photos also available. There is a Lethbridge, Alberta Gene Society: http://lethbridgeags.theboss.net/index.htm I also checked out this site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~abwcobit/ If you find someone on the indexes thru the above site, you go here to look for the newspaper. This site is NOT indexed by surname, is just available to troll through various newspapers by date and name of newspapaer: http://www.ourfutureourpast.ca/newspapr/ The Lethbridge newspapers for the period of his death and burial are on this page: http://www.ourfutureourpast.ca/newspapr/brwsindx.asp?code=niy but as he wasn't listed in the index of the newspaper on the obit site, I doubt he is there. You might want to go thru the pages though, just in case he was missed in the indexing. You likely already have his BC death reg: http://search.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca/sn-41F5037/gbsearch/Births,Marriages,Deaths British Columbia Death Index: 1872 to 1979 Name: George Frederick Goff Gender: Male Age: 42 Death Date: 22 Jul 1921 Place of Death: East Kootenay Registration #: 1921-09-292425 bca #: B13120 gsu #: 1927297 1911 census of Alberta / Medicine Hat / 76 Lethbridge / page 9: 453 9th St S George F Goff Head April ____ (no year or age given) no place of birth given Presbyterian Conductor on Canadian Pacific Railroad Isabell E Goff Wife November, 1889 21 born in Ontario Presbyterian Lawrence P Goff Son January, 1910 1 born in Alberta Presbyterian Rachael Campbell Mother-in-Law Widow November, 1864 age 46 born in Ontario Methodist Alberta births are not online so I can't find the birth of the son, Lawrence, for you.
